BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a flat panel display device comprising a polysilicon thin film transistor and a method of manufacturing the same. More particularly, it relates to a flat panel display device comprising polysilicon thin film transistors having different sizes and shapes of polysilicon grains formed in an active channel region of a thin film transistor.

2. Discussion of the Related Art

Bonding defects such as dangling bonds exist at grain boundaries of the polysilicon used in active channel regions of thin film transistors (TFTs). These defects have been known to act as traps for electric charge carriers.

TFT characteristics such as threshold voltage (Vth), subthreshold slope, charge carrier mobility, leakage current, device stability, and the like are affected either directly or indirectly by the size, uniformity, number, position and direction of the grains and/or grain boundaries in the channel region of TFTs. For example, the position of the grains is also capable of affecting either directly or indirectly the uniformity of the TFTs manufactured for an active matrix display.

Currently the number of grain boundaries (which may be referred to as “primary” grain boundaries) that are included in the active channel region of the TFTs over an entire substrate may be equal to or different from each other. Referring to FIGS. 1A and 1B, this number depends on the size of the grains, slope angle θ, dimensions of the active channel region (e.g., length L, width W), and position of each TFT on the substrate.

As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the number of primary grain boundaries capable of being included in the active channel region may be represented as N_(max). This number depends on the grain sizes (Gs), the active channel dimensions (L×W), the slope angle (θ), and on the position on the TFT substrate. The maximum number of primary grain boundaries is N_(max), and is 3, in the case of FIG. 1A. In the case of FIG. 1B the maximum number of primary grain boundaries becomes N_(max)−1, and is 2.

Excellent TFT characteristics can be obtained when TFTs included in the active channel regions over the substrate have the N_(max) number of primary grain boundaries. The uniformity of the device increases as the number of TFTs having an equal number of the grain boundaries can be obtained.

In contrast, when the number of the TFT comprising a N_(max) number of the primary grain boundaries is equal to the number of the TFT comprising N_(max)−1 of primary grain boundaries, the uniformity is worse.

In this regard, sequential lateral solidification (SLS) crystallization technology is capable of forming large silicon grains of polycrystalline or single crystal particles on the substrate as shown in FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B. It has been reported that TFTs manufactured using SLS crystallization technology have similar characteristics to TFTs manufactured with single crystals.

Numerous TFTs for driver and pixel arrays are needed in the manufacture of an active matrix display. For example, an active matrix display having a SVGA resolution level may be manufactured with about one million pixels. Also, when using a liquid crystal display (LCD) each pixel requires one TFT and when using an organic luminescent material (e.g., organic electroluminescent device) each pixel requires at least two TFTs. Therefore, one million or two million TFTs may be required in the active matrix display. Accordingly, due to the large number of required TFTs it is impossible to have uniform number of grains grown and manufactured in the uniform directions in the active channel regions for each of these TFTs.

U.S. Pat. No. 6,322,625 discloses technology for converting amorphous silicon into polysilicon. This patent is incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. Additionally, the reference discloses crystallizing selected regions on the substrate by using SLS technology. The amorphous silicon may be deposited with plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD), sputtering techniques, or the like.

Referring to FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B, the selected region for crystallization may be substantially wide region when compared with the active channel region. That is, the selected region may be several μms by several μms. Additionally, a laser used in the crystallization technology may have a beam area of several mm by several tens of mm. The laser may use a stepper or a stage for shifting the laser beam in order to crystallize the amorphous silicon in the entire region or a selected region on the substrate.

Misalignment of the laser beam during operation, for example, misalignment between regions during irradiation may cause misalignment in the active channel regions of the numerous TFTs. As a result a number of the grain boundaries may be different in the various TFTs over the entire substrate or in the driver and pixel cell regions, thereby creating unpredictable characteristics. These non-uniformities may exert a negative influence on the active matrix display device.

U.S. Pat. No. 6,177,391 is hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. As in U.S. Pat. No. 6,177,391 and referring to FIG. 3A, when the direction of an active channel is parallel with a grain direction grown by SLS crystallization a barrier effect of the grain boundaries with respect to the direction of an electric charge carrier is minimized. As a result, TFT characteristics similar to single crystal silicon can be obtained. Referring to FIG. 3B, when the active channel direction and the grain direction constitute about a 90° angle a number of the grain boundaries act as traps for electric charge carriers and the TFT characteristics are remarkably lowered.

Typically the active channel direction and the grain direction of TFTs in a driver circuit and the TFTs in a pixel cell region may have a 90° angle when the active matrix display is manufactured. Referring to FIG. 3C, in order to improve the uniformity characteristics between TFTs and without largely decreasing the characteristics of each TFT the direction of the active channel region with respect to the grain growth direction is manufactured with an inclined slope of about 30° to 90°. As a result, the uniformity of the device may be increased.

This method, however, has a possibility of having primary grain boundaries in the active channel region by using a limited size of grain formed by the SLS crystallization technology. Thus, a problem of unpredictability with non-uniformities exists and causes different characteristics among the TFTs.

Additionally, the display device may employ complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) thin film transistor (TFT) in the circuits. Generally, an absolute value of the threshold voltage of the TFT is larger than that of a MOS transistor using the single-crystal semiconductor. Also, the absolute value of a threshold voltage of an N-type TFT is substantially different from the absolute value of a P-type TFT. For example, when the threshold voltage of the N-type TFT is 2V the threshold voltage of the P-type TFT is −4V.

Therefore, these substantial differences between the absolute values of the threshold voltages of the P-type TFT and the N-type TFT exert negative influences on the operation of the circuit, especially, by acting as a large obstacle in decreasing a driving voltage. For example, generally a P-type TFT has a large absolute threshold voltage value and is not suitably operated at low driving voltages. That is, the P-type TFT functions as a passive device at low driving voltages such as a register and is not operated properly. A substantially high voltage is required in order to properly operate the P-type TFT as the active device.

This may be exaggerated as work functions between the gate electrode and the intrinsic silicon are different. For example, the gate electrode may be of aluminum and has a work function below 5 eV. As the work functions between the gate electrode and an intrinsic silicon semiconductor become smaller such as −0.6 eV the threshold voltage of the P-type TFT approaches a negative value and the threshold voltage of the N-type TFT approaches 0 V. Accordingly, the N-type TFT may shift to an “on” state of operation.

In the state as described above, the absolute values of the threshold voltages of the N-type TFT and the P-type TFT are preferably substantially equal to each other. In the case of a conventional single-crystal semiconductor integrated circuit technology, the threshold voltage may be controlled using N-type or P-type impurities. That is, these impurities may be doped into the semiconductor at very low concentrations of about or below 10¹⁸ atom/cm². Accordingly, the threshold voltages are precisely controlled below 0.1V by the impurity doping of 10¹⁵ to 10¹⁸ atom/cm² concentration.

In contrast, when using a semiconductor that are not a single-crystal semiconductor, the shift of the threshold voltages is not observed by adding impurities with a concentration of about or below 10¹⁸ atom/cm². In addition, when the concentration of the impurities is higher than 10¹⁸ atom/cm² the threshold voltage is rapidly varied and conductivity becomes a P-type or an N-type as the polycrystalline silicon contains many defects. Since a defect concentration is 10¹⁸ atom/cm², the added impurities cannot be trapped and/or activated by this defect. Furthermore, the concentration of the impurities is larger than that of the defects, and excess impurities are activated that may cause the conductivity type to be varied from an N-type or P-type.

The related art tries to solve these problems, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,492,268, 6,124,603 and 5,615,935, by providing shorter channel lengths of the P-type TFTs than the channel lengths of the N-type TFTs. These patents cited herein are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. However, these patents also create problems by complicating the manufacturing process since the channel lengths are manufactured with different lengths from each other.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE ILLUSTRATED EMBODIMENTS

Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. This invention, however, may be embodied in different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art. In the drawings, the thickness of layers and regions are exaggerated for clarity. Like reference numbers refer to like elements throughout the specification.

In the present invention, “grain size” defines a distance between identifiable grain boundaries. Of course, the calculated distances are subject to conventional error ranges.

Grain boundaries existing in the active channel region may exert negative influences on the TFT characteristics. These negative influences are inevitable due to defects in the process, process limitations, and lack of precision in the formation of polysilicon thin films.

Furthermore, depending upon the size and direction of a grain, dimensions of the active channel, and the like, the number of grain boundaries included in the TFTs active channel regions that are manufactured on a driving circuit substrate or on a display substrate may be different. As a result, the characteristics of the manufactured TFTs may become irregular and at an extreme may not be drivable.

The present invention is directed towards providing a flat panel display device comprising TFTs such that the number of grains and/or grain boundaries existing in the active channel region of the TFT are adjustable.

FIGS. 4A and 4B show plan views illustrating polysilicon grains formed in active channel regions of a pixel portion (FIG. 4A) and a driving circuit portion (FIG. 4B) of a flat panel display device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIGS. 4A and 4B, polysilicon may be manufactured by crystallization of amorphous silicon. The crystallization may be accomplished, for example, by using laser crystallization methods such as an excimer laser annealing method (ELA method), sequential lateral solidification method (SLS method), and the like.

During the crystallization, energy of the laser irradiated on the driving circuit portion is larger than energy of the laser irradiated on the pixel portion. For example, when using the ELA method, the driving circuit portion is irradiated with a laser having energy ranging from about 320 to 540 mJ/cm² and the pixel portion is irradiated with a laser having energy ranging from of about 200 to 320 mJ/cm². Accordingly, the average particle size per unit area of the polysilicon formed in the pixel portion is smaller than the average particle size in the driving circuit portion.

When polysilicon is manufactured by this method and used for TFTs having at least one gate, the average number of grains per unit area is greater in the pixel portion region than in the driving circuit portion region. As a result, the pixel portion region has more grain boundaries than the driving circuit portion region.

FIG. 5 shows a plan view illustrating a flat panel display device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. In this configuration, the number of grains per unit area in the active channel region of TFTs in a driving circuit portion is less than the number of grains per unit area in the active channel region of TFTs in a pixel portion.

The (B) portion of FIG. 5 illustrates the number of polysilicon grains formed in the active channel region of a TFT included in the driving circuit portion 10. The (A) portion of FIG. 5 illustrates the number of polysilicon grains formed in the active channel region of a TFT included in the pixel portion. The number of the polysilicon grains in the active channel region of the driving circuit portion is formed to be less than at least the number of the polysilicon grains formed in the active channel region of the pixel portion 20.

Additionally, in at least one of the TFTs, the polysilicon grain sizes formed in the active channel region of the pixel portion 20 are more uniform than the polysilicon grain sizes formed in the active channel region in the driving circuit portion 10. Additionally, the particle sizes are smaller in the pixel portion, that is, the area of the grain boundary surrounding one particle is smaller. Accordingly, the number and area of the grain boundaries included in the active channel of the pixel portion is increased. Also, the average particle size of the polysilicon grains included in the active channel region of each gate region is larger in the driving circuit portion than in the pixel portion.

Accordingly, the electric characteristics, such as, current mobility is better in the driving circuit portion than in the pixel portion. Also, the current uniformity is better in the pixel portion as the particle sizes are more uniform in the pixel portion than in the driving circuit portion.

The flat panel display device comprising the polysilicon thin films formed by the above-mentioned method may be an organic electroluminescent display device, liquid crystal display device, or the like. Optionally, the TFTs of the present invention are capable of having at least two gates.

FIGS. 6A, 6B, 6C, 6D, 6E, 6F and 6G show processes for manufacturing CMOS TFTs used in a liquid crystal display device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 6A, a polysilicon film is deposited on the substrate 210 and is provided with an N-type TFT region 210 a and a P-type TFT region 210 b. A first mask (not shown) is located on the substrate 210 to etch the polysilicon film, thereby forming polysilicon patterns 211 a and 211 b over the N-type TFT region 210 a and the P-type TFT region 210 b, respectively. The channel regions of the N-type TFT and the P-type TFT are formed to have substantially the same width.

When the polysilicon patterns 211 a and 211 b are formed, shapes of the polysilicon grains formed in the active channels over regions 210 b and region 210 a may be formed to have different shapes from each other. More particularly, the polysilicon grains formed in the active channel of the N-type TFT region have a substantially isotropic particle shape and the polysilicon grains formed in the active channel of the P-type TFT region have a substantially anisotropic particle shape.

In the present invention, the polysilicon pattern is formed by crystallizing the amorphous silicon with a laser, thereby forming the polysilicon film. For example, the crystallization may be accomplished by any combination of laser crystallization methods such as an excimer laser annealing method (ELA method), sequential lateral solidification method (SLS method), and the like.

In this embodiment, the active channel region of the P-type TFT is formed by using the SLS method and the active channel region of the N-type TFT is formed by using an ELA method.

Optionally, the same laser crystallization technique may be employed to form the polysilicon in each region. When using the same laser technique, the laser is irradiated in the active channel region of the P-type TFT at a higher energy level than the energy of the laser being irradiated in the active channel region of the N-type TFT.

The average size of the grain particles of the P-type TFT may be larger than that of the N-type TFT. For example, the average grain size may be more than 2 μm in the active channel region of the P-type TFT and less than 1 μm in the active channel region of the N-type TFT.

As shown in FIG. 6B, after the polysilicon pattern is formed, channel doping is performed with an N-type dopant in order to give conductivity to the N-type TFT. The implantation may be performed by using a photoresist 212 as a mask. The implantation is preformed after the polysilicon pattern 211 a of the channel region 210 a in the N-type TFT is exposed.

The present invention may also include any number of conventional TFT structures for the source and drain regions, for example, a lightly doped drain structure (LDD structure), an offset structure, or the like may be utilized.

The present embodiment, utilizes the following processes with respect to the CMOS TFT having a LDD structure. The method of fabricating this structure will now be described.

Referring to FIG. 6C, after the photoresist 212 is removed a gate insulating film 213 is formed on the substrate 210 and gate electrode material is deposited on the gate insulating film 213. The gate electrode material is etched on the substrate 210 by using a mask to form gate electrodes 214 a and 214 b of the N-type TFT and the P-type TFT, respectively. To form the LDD structure, N-type low concentration impurities are ion implanted in the polysilicon pattern 211 a of the N-type TFT region, thereby forming low concentration source and drain regions 215 at both sides of the gate electrode 214 a.

Referring to FIG. 6D, a photoresist is deposited on the entire surface of the substrate 210. A photolithography process is performed to prevent ion impurity implanting into the N-type TFT region 210 a. At the same time, a mask 216 is used for forming source and drain regions of the P-type TFT is formed. Using this mask a high concentration P-type impurity is ion implanted into the polysilicon pattern 211 b of the P-type TFT region 210 b, thereby forming a high concentration source and drain regions 217 of the P-type TFT.

Referring to FIG. 6E, the mask is removed and another photoresist is deposited on the substrate 210. A photolithography process is performed to form a mask 218, thereby preventing impurities from being ion implanted into the gate electrode of the N-type TFT and the P-type TFT region 210 a. Using the mask 218, N-type high concentration impurity ions are implanted into the polysilicon pattern 211 a of the N-type TFT region 210 a, thereby forming a high concentration source and drain regions 219.

Referring to FIG. 6F, after the mask 218 is removed, an interlayer insulating film 220 is formed on the entire surface of the substrate 210. A mask (not shown) is positioned on the substrate 210 to etch contact holes 221 a and 221 b into the interlayer insulating film 220. The contact holes expose the source/drain regions 217 and 219 of the N-type TFT and the P-type TFT.

Referring to FIG. 6G, a conductive metal material is deposited on the entire surface of the substrate 210 for forming source and drain electrodes. A mask (not shown) is used in order to etch the conductive metal material to form source and drain electrodes 222 a and 222 b of the N-type TFT and the P-type TFT, respectively. Accordingly, a CMOS TFT is provided with the N-type TFT having the LDD structure and the P-type TFT has a conventional source and drain structure.

FIGS. 7A, 7B, 7C and 7D show views illustrating crystalline particle shapes of polysilicon films included in active channel regions of the P-type TFT and the N-type TFT having the LDD structure of FIG. 6G. FIGS. 7A, 7B and 7C show the anisotropic particle shapes and FIG. 7D illustrates the isotropic particle shape.

FIG. 8A shows a graph illustrating threshold voltage values of the P-type TFT employing the polysilicon film having the crystalline shapes as represented in FIGS. 7A, 7B, 7C and 7D. FIG. 8B show a graph illustrating threshold voltage values of the N-type TFT employing the polysilicon film having the crystalline shapes as represented in FIGS. 7A, 7B, 7C and 7D. The threshold voltage values are presented in Table 1 as follows.

TABLE 1 P-type TFT Vth Grain shape (Voltage) N-type TFT Vth (Voltage) FIG. 7A (anisotropy) −4.82 1.41 FIG. 7B (anisotropy) −4.01 2.34 FIG. 7C (anisotropy) −5.84 0.92 FIG. 7D (isotropy) −11.60 7.90

Referring to Table 1 and FIGS. 8A and 8B, it is shown that the absolute values of the threshold voltages Vth of the P-type TFT and the N-type TFT in case of FIGS. 7A to 7C having substantially anisotropic crystalline shape are smaller than the absolute value of the threshold voltage in case of FIG. 7D having a substantially isotropic crystalline shape. When small differences of absolute threshold voltages are desired between P-type and N-type TFTs, the P-type TFT should employ a substantially anisotropic crystalline shape and the N-type TFT should employ a substantially isotropic crystalline shape.

Referring to FIGS. 7A, 7B, 7C and 7D, the anisotropic crystal shape of FIG. 7A has a substantially hexagonal-like shape. The crystal shape of FIG. 7B is a substantially anisotropic cylindrical shape. The crystal shape of FIG. 7C is a substantially rectangular shape. The substantially isotropic crystal shape of FIG. 7D is a substantially equiaxed shape.

In the present invention, the polysilicon in the N-type and P-Type TFTs included in the active channel region may have different grain shapes. These TFTs may be used in a number of different flat panel display devices, for example, they may be used in an active device type LCDs, organic electroluminescent display devices, or the like.

As described hereinabove, the flat panel display device comprising a polysilicon TFT in accordance with the present invention is capable of satisfying required electrical characteristics. This may accomplished by varying grain sizes of the polysilicon included in the active channel region and/or by varying laser energy irradiated on the driving circuit portion and the pixel portion in the crystallization of the amorphous silicon.

Additionally, the present invention is capable of providing a CMOS TFTs having improved electrical characteristics. For example, CMOS TFTs having absolute values of the threshold voltages and current mobility controlled by varying the number of the “primary” grain boundaries in the active channel regions of the N-type and P-type TFTs.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variation can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention.
